Talk:Random password generator
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
What's the real main article for this page? Examples is a redirect page.
Also, these code fragments are very poor. They seed the random number generator based on the time of day, so if I know the server's time of day when the account was created, I know the password! -- Mikeblas 01:07, 3 February 2006 (UTC)
- I rewrote the article using the code fragments as examples of what not to do. No offense intended to the original submitter; these are all too common mistakes and that is why i think this article is needed. --agr 23:00, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
